Estimate AI tokens, costs, and usage with Token Counter on AboveTool. Free browser calculator for developers and teams — no data sent to servers.
Token Counter
counts approximate tokens, words, and characters from pasted text with multi-model estimates
Illustrative planning math only — vendor prices and tokenizers change. Nothing is uploaded to a server unless a mode explicitly calls a public API (none do here).
About Token Counter
Token Counter is used to count the exact number of tokens in a piece of text using the tokenizer for a specific LLM model. It works by: it runs the text through the selected model's tokenizer (GPT-4, Claude, Llama, etc.) and returns the exact token count with a token-by-token breakdown. Different models use different tokenizers — the same text may have slightly different token counts in GPT-4 vs Claude vs Llama, so always use the tokenizer that matches your deployment model. Token Counter runs free in your browser at abovetool.com — no signup required.
